Confidence Level Low
Impact Level Low
Likelihood Level Low

Description

The Function App is configured to allow CORS requests from any origin ('*'), which means any website can interact with your app's APIs. This overly permissive setting exposes your application to unauthorized cross-origin access.

Impact

Attackers could exploit this by making malicious requests from untrusted websites, potentially stealing sensitive data or abusing your APIs. This increases the risk of data leakage, account compromise, and other attacks via unauthorized cross-origin interactions.
